OK just curious here, how many guys/girls start super early or late. I bought my 1st at 16 (my grandfather put 95% in, i put in all my "paper route money" and everything else saved, about $3000 in 1983. Still own that house today.  

purchased 35,000 

reno 40,000

all in $75,000 (in 1983)

After a bunch of upgrades including for a 2nd time new kitchen,baths,hardwood, roof, landscape, etc. 

Rental now $2,500

Value 500,000ish
